Chapter 589: Rectify Zhenxiong

In Hezhang County's hometown, the Zha brothers including Zha Quanxiao and Zha Quanyou, as well as his stragglers, have all been arrested and brought to justice, and their family property and relatives have been handed over to the local county government for seizure and seizure, of which 37 are the main culprits, and they have been successfully escorted to Zhenxiong Prefecture.

In the next few days, Li Yi immediately intensified the interrogation, making the appearance tough, but the bones were too soft, Zha Quanzhong quickly confessed all the crimes honestly.

His henchmen also confessed to the crimes, and quickly reported the current situation in Zhenxiong Prefecture and the evidence of the crimes of Zha Quanzhong and others to the imperial court, and sentenced Zha Quanzhong, Lang Tianci, Zha Quanxiao, Zha Quanyou and other four people to be executed, another 16 people were sentenced to hanging, and the remaining 30 or so coerced followers were sentenced to cane imprisonment, which was also the largest collective trial since Li Yi came to Yunnan.

After exterminating the underworld forces of Cha Quanzhong, the biggest problem facing Zhenxiong Prefecture is the adjustment of military deployment. Due to the transfer of all the Dangkou troops, the strength of Zhenxiong Prefecture was greatly reduced, and only the scale of more than 5,000 people remained. At present, however, there are four customs defenses, including Weixin Pass, Wuyang Pass, Weining Pass, and Kuishan Pass, as well as the political and military center of Zhenxiong Prefecture.

For this reason, Li Yi and the others discussed and discussed and decided to unify the deployment of all military forces in the former Yunnan and Zhenxiong Prefecture. Weining Pass and Kuishan Pass, which were located in the rear hinterland of Zhenxiong Prefecture and had little military value, were downgraded to the Inspection Division, and the number of garrisons was reduced to 300 people. The Baiwu Pass in the former Yunnan was downgraded to the Inspection Division, and the number of troops stationed was tentatively set at 500 people.

The establishment of Weixin Pass and Wuyang Pass was retained, and Zhang Bo served as the deputy commander of the Mabu Army in Zhenxiong Prefecture, and concurrently served as the defense envoy of Weixin Pass, and the grade was set as the sixth grade, and the number of garrisons was 1,500 people. Tuoba Huang served as the defense envoy of Wuyang Pass, with the same grade and the number of garrison 1,200 people.

The newly established Zhenxiongzhou Volunteer Police Battalion was composed of 300 people drawn from the township regiment, and the former Kuishanguan Defense Envoy was transferred to the Commander of the Vigilante Battalion, and the original treatment and rank remained unchanged.

The Zhenxiong Prefecture Horse Army was composed of 1,000 people, and Liu Wei was directly under the command of the Zhenxiong Prefecture Horse Infantry Army. The rest of the city defense officers and soldiers and logistics troops totaled only about 500 people.

In this way, the total number of officers and men in Zhenxiong Prefecture is less than 5,000, and the total strength of the total number of officers and men in the surrounding areas is about 10,000, including all the officers and men of the former Yunnan side after the adjustment.

In addition to submitting the document to the imperial court, Li Yi used the past few days to inspect all the customs and counties under the jurisdiction of Zhenxiong Prefecture, and put forward some constructive suggestions for transformation and upgrading, so as to better perform defense duties and build a stronger border defense.

Before leaving, Liu Wei specially proposed to Li Yi that he was very interested in the mode of training grassroots officers in the Yunnan Lecture and Martial Arts Hall, and now that Yunnan and Zhenxiong are one family, he hopes to provide Zhenxiong Prefecture with several places in each period, and vigorously train the grassroots officers and soldiers of Zhenxiong, so that the appearance of the army in Zhenxiong Prefecture can be greatly improved in a short period of time, and at the same time, the combat level of officers and men will be greatly improved, and the duty of defending the country will be earnestly performed.

Of course, Li Yi agreed, and after a simple consideration, he decided to start from the fifth phase of the Yunnan Lecture and Martial Arts Hall, that is, at the beginning of September this year, to set the number of students in the Yunnan Lecture Hall at a total of 60, of which 40 were still from Yunnan and 20 from Zhenxiong Prefecture. This was a big surprise to everyone, which made Liu Wei even more ecstatic.

Seeing that Liu Wei tasted the sweetness, Tao Yue was also itching, so he proposed to Li Yi on the spot that Zhenxiong Prefecture has always been economically backward and talented people are withering, even if they want to work hard to implement reforms and improve the living standards of the people, they are also limited by the lack of talents and cannot implement the results of reform.

Therefore, what he means is that he wants to send a group of young talents from Zhenxiong Prefecture to the Yunnan Political and Economic Hall to learn from the experience, so as to enrich the political and economic talent team of the government as soon as possible, so as to ensure the smooth progress of various reforms in Zhenxiong Prefecture.

Of course, Li Yi agreed to Tao Yue's request. However, the threshold set by the Yunnan Political and Economic Hall is very high, and you cannot enter the school unless you pass the examination, and you have to go through Li Yi's personal checks one by one, and you can't enter the school casually.

However, Li Yi does not know the details of the level of students in Zhenxiong Prefecture, if he must pass the exam, I am afraid that most people will not be able to adapt to this model, and the elimination rate must be very amazing, and it is difficult to play a role in cultivating Zhenxiong's political and economic talents.

Therefore, Li Yi decided on the spot that Zhenxiong Prefecture could directly select ten students to study in the Yunnan Political and Economic Hall this time, and give another ten places, and the rest of the students would compete for the examination and be hired on the basis of merit.

However, this temporary decision is limited to the third phase of the upcoming school year, and it will still be a compulsory entrance examination in the future, so as to ensure that the teaching level of Yunnan Political and Economic Hall will not decline.

For Li Yi's arrangement, Tao Yue was of course overjoyed. Yunnan Political and Economic Hall is now famous, and even the scholars in the capital have long heard about it, and they are envious of it. This time, Zhenxiong Prefecture has won 20 places at once, and once he returns from his studies, he will inevitably become the leading force in various reforms in Zhenxiong Prefecture. Yunnan's current achievements are obvious to all, and even if Zhenxiong Prefecture is a toddler in Handan, it will definitely gain something.

In the send-off team, the most depressed was the current deputy commander of the Ma Bujun in Zhenxiong Prefecture and the defense envoy of Weixin Pass.

Although he was promoted to two levels this time, he was not happy at all, and of course Li Yi understood the reason. You must know that although Baiwu Pass is an important pass in the northernmost part of Yunnan, it is only one hundred and seventy or eighty miles away from Ningzhou, and its family members are all in Ningzhou, so it is very convenient to go back and forth.

Now the prestige pass is already the northernmost pass of Zhenxiong Prefecture, which is close to 400 miles away from Ningzhou, and it is not so easy to go back from time to time to visit family members, wives and children as before.

And what makes him even more troubled is that the current prestige pass is already the northern gate of the entire Yunnan and Zhenxiong, directly facing the Shu State, the defensive responsibility is very heavy, and the situation is not optimistic.

At present, although some elite soldiers and strong generals from Baiwu Pass have been dispatched to go, most of the officers and soldiers of Weixin Pass are not soldiers and horses that they are familiar with, and there are still some problems in running-in.

When he tactfully asked Li Yi these questions, Li Yi could only be helpless. After all, the important town must be guarded by capable generals, and the selection of Zhang Bo, who is dignified, steady, and capable, to serve in this position is also the result of Li Yi's careful consideration. And to send others, the problem is the same, but this kind of deserted place is not something that everyone wants to go.
